"Vinen fra Santo Spirito fremstilles med druer fra 60-100 år gamle planter, der står på grænsen til contrada Guardiola. Mens Guardiola er stejl og med smalle terrasser, så er hældningen på Santo Spirito blødere og terrasserne er bredere, og jorden her er mere næringsrig, men stadig præget af vulkansk aske. Marc de Grazia karakteriserer vinens udtryk som feminint, generøst og sart, mens Guardiola yder en strengere rødvin. I munden er der både silke og fløjl, god ekstrakt og en vedvarende, dyb smag. Det er oplagt at smage den i sammenhæng med vinene fra de øvrige cru’er, for at få en fornemmelse for lokaliteternes betydning." Adriat
"This has a perfumed nose of rose-hips, currants, pomegranates, violets, lemon zest, cloves and cinnamon stick. Seductive spicy character. Almost peppery, with a medium body and firm, tight-grained tannins. Lots of tension." James Suckling 95p
"Of the wines in this important portfolio from Etna, this one is often the softest and the most sensual. The Tenuta delle Terre Nere 2020 Etna Rosso Santo Spirito delivers a very fine and nuanced fruit profile with a fluttering of wild berry and rose. The mouthfeel is lean and delicate, and the tannins are supple. Santo Spirito can be seen in three parts: the high part, middle part and lower parcel. The middle part is the least interesting because an old stream flooded there and changed the soils. Marc De Grazia uses the lower part for red wines and the upper part for whites." Wine Advocate 95p
"Sweet autumnal spice, cedar shavings, cherry sauce and mint nuances make the 2020 Etna Rosso Santo Spirito impossible to ignore. This is a showboat, silky and refined, with pure red berry fruits and saline mineral tones that add a lovely traction toward the close. Zesty acidity provides a nice inner freshness as the 2020 tapers off spicy and extends with a tinge of fine tannins that promise many years of positive development." Vinous 93p
